NowaAnglia: Well, I think I have good news for you. I just installed it and it runs on a PC from 2002. 2 GHz Pentium 4 CPU with a 400 MHz FSB. 1GB RAM. Onboard Intel Extreme Graphics.
It works. It runs. I wasn't sure with the built in graphics chip, but that sucker runs smooth at 1280x1024.
It really should work for you. I wish I could help more, but this should at least give you hope. Good luck, let us know if you get it going.
Maybe it doesn't like my old AMD.
Anyway whatever, in 2015 I'll finally change PC (hoping for a good Win10).
Thanks for the tests.

I can run it no problem in Linux under Wine 1.6, with Pentium 4 2.66GHz, 768 ram and Geforce FX 5200 on board.

You're welcome. I hope your new PC lasts as long as the old one. ;)

He he thanks, it must have like 10 years by now!
(I've only replaced the power supply, added 1 secondary hdisk, bought 500Mb + 1Gb ram, changed monitor from CRT to LCD)

As for the bit about picking up your save, that's because saves for a lot of games can either be found under C:\Users\<your windows profile>\Documents.

They'll either be in their own folder or the save data will be under a subfolder in Documents\My Games.


For the requirements, this game has actually been modified to run on DirectX 9, a major performance boost for new systems. You have no idea how many old games will run like shit when they're directly dragged and dropped to new systems, not to mention color bugs.

The "requirements" are total BS, I'd say Pentium 3 at most.
